We walk under these city lights We stand under the darkest nights And I can't imagine anything more up there beyond the sky I went to church on Christmas Eve For the first time in a century I sang the carols but I could not believe This non-believer My dad said, "Son, there's nothing else Before you love someone you gotta learn to love yourself Know when they're gone they will be truly be gone So don't you waste your time" But I wasted time in the dye I cast I will not blame this on my past I broke your heart Just messing around This non-believer Open up my eyes to find You've learned a few tricks in your time And I spend my days just treading water Never learning how to swim My friends and family call me up Say "You're all right, but what the fuck?" What were you thinking Choose your head, foolish non-believer" It's buried deep but I suspect There is something here to resurrect People collide, buildings collapse Gotta try again I don't believe there is a plan Feels too much like an accident
